This formula focuses on ultra-moisturizing high molecular weight versions for ample surface hydration as well as on medium molecular weight versions, whose strong point is to strengthen the skin barrier and to reinforce the skin’s natural defense & healing mechanisms.

ingredients & research

key ingredients:

Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer – A new generation, cross-linked Hyaluronic Acid, whose water binding ability is several times greater than the already amazing water-binding ability of hyaluronic acid. Also offers longer-term moisturizing benefits.

Sodium Hyaluronate - The most common, salt-form of Hyaluronic Acid that can be found in large and medium molecular weight in the formula.

Tremella Fuciformis (Mushroom) Extract – The extract of silver ear mushroom known for its amazing water-binding abilities. It contains sugar constituents, including Glucuronic Acid, one of the building blocks of Hyaluronic Acid. It is cosmetically very elegant, non-sticky and has additional antioxidant benefits.

Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid – A smaller molecular weight version of Hyaluronic Acid that is known for its ability to reinforce the skin’s natural defense & healing mechanisms.

Panthenol – A classic skincare ingredient that is a reliable soothing, moisturizing and skin-protecting agent.

Great!

I have oily and sensitive skin. This has been a game changer product with the colder weather that is starting. I can't use most heavy moisturizers, so this helps with adding moisture under the gel moisturizer I use and helps keep my skin from looking like an oil slick in the middle of the day. It doesn't irritate my skin at all!
